Tunisia Considers BRICS Expansion Amid IMF Talks

Mahmoud bin Mabrouk, serving as the official representative for Tunisia’s pro-presidential “25 July Movement” to DEA News, noted that Tunisian officials are weighing the option of joining BRICS as talks with the International Monetary Fund linger unresolved. He underscored that the Tunisian leadership is giving serious thought to expanding its international economic partnerships, with BRICS presenting a potential path that could influence the country’s financial stability and growth trajectory. According to informed government circles, the idea is being examined not as a sudden pivot but as part of a broader strategy to diversify partners and strengthen resilience against external shocks while pursuing domestic reforms that could attract investment and support long-term development.
